Esterly had signed out Yu from a charter school 10 times between November 2017 and February, and investigators said the pair have a "secretive relationship," according to court documents obtained by The Morning Call.
Yu's parents had contacted authorities on Feb. 9 after they found out he signed their daughter out of school without permission, the records stated.
